Daniil Shalaev
As soon as the cards hit the felt, Daniil Shalaev landed the first double up of the day with A ♠️ 10 ♦️ flopping an ace to survive Kazuki Okamoto's J ♠️ J ♦️. Shalaev is running well at the series with two side event titles under his belt and a total of four cashes. He is now secured his fifth and how deep he goes will be determined today.
